Rising

The music in my headphones as I come up the stairs from the subway at the end of the day reminds me of when I used to perform music, the sound moving through me, the power of it, opening my heart into an audience.

Far above, a dark blue balloon rises up into the sky. A little boy grabs his father by the hand, pointing at the balloon, following it as it rises.

"Balloon!" he yells, over the ecstasy in my ears.
